I seen that there wasnt much engine exhaust sprites around and i wasnt very interested in the old ones, so i edited the originals a little bit to give them that afterburner look to the engines. I know to my eyes it looks great but you should be the judge. I seen potential in the originals, but i can go from scratch and make them insane almost like ones on jet afterburner with cool hues.

I guess you want some screen shots before and after. weapon mod will also be in the zip. Give me your thoughts. After

@ehsumrell1 Thanks. Did you prefer any of the weapon beams or torpedo? and if yes which ones? curious. thx i am currently working on making each engine exhaust unique, and i keep playing around with weapon sprites. I get a kick outa it.

I am liking the the weapons mod. The seem a bit more defined than the default weapon textures. The wave weapon is much better than defualt.

A few things to consider...

On the wave weapons or rail guns has anyone considered using a series of blurred up sonic rings to represent them? Of course you'd get a top down view so it wouldn't really be a ring. The only way I can really think of to best describe was the very old comics way of showing telepathy etc. Sort of like this: | | | | | | :only the start ones are smaller and get progressively bigger. Anyway, just a thought, and it may not turn out real good.

Yeah thats a good idea.. but i dont think it would be good for rail gun but the wave weapons yes it would be better, am just thinking how could i make it smaller at the start and bigger at the end without looking like the originals. I am still working on new Starburners and Vortex engines sprites and continuasly playing around with weapon sprites. I keep testing them and trying out new design. Soon ill come out with a new sprite altogether perhaps. I got 2 new engine sprites. 1 new vortex and 1 new starburner they still need more testing first.

you would have to show me the premature design maybe i can jazz it up a little bit, so i know just what you mean.

I think your saying the first ring is the smallest, second ring medium size and the last, 3rd ring is large and the 4th is very large circle ring.?Or you want it to be just small lines and no circles? small lines that get bigger and larger as they expand away from center but the line do a circle withouth touching each other line?

Ok, i did manage to make a really nice wave weapon image. 4 new unique wave weapons with the same colors as the originals. they are amazing!! even tho i dont use wave weapons on my ships cause they cause reputation lose for me. Just tested them and fantastic. But hey let the Distant World community be the judge. download em and try em!. They make this game so much more enjoyable, eye candy I am totaly over the difference in wave weapon visual. Give me your thoughts. I put them into another thread. waveweapon thread. with small zip files

@Sharky hopefuly this is kinda!? what you meant with them looking like your picture you gave me, I used your image to give a model wasnt that easy tho. thanks Sharky

@Sharky thank you Oh! that weapon ... ahaha I was on the completly wrong path, and made a sweet wave waepon sprite because of you.. lol I have a sprite already kinda like a boomerang look to it. Funny thing is ive never actualy seen the Wekkarus special tech wave weapon.. i have it on one of my games ill go take a look.
